Well I have a 2014 Fiesta ST that I got new, I’m at 84,500 miles now, it’s on its 5th set of tires, that’s how hard I drive it, it’s currently on Michlin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ awesome Grip, I’m on a Cobb stage 2 91 Octane, because that’s all we get in California, and many Visual mods, it’s the light Gray with gloss black rims & trim, I get complements every day on the car, what makes them unique is there’s not many of them, and then when I beat a stock GTI, they say what is that, I’m my 2nd set of brakes, and it doesn’t lose any oil in between 5000 mile oil changes. I’m 72 and I have had many cars and many motorcycles by far this is the most fun I’ve ever had on four wheels it’s an absolute street legal go kart. The Fiesta Flash 🤙🏼🍺

Hold on.. hooollddd on. You are 72years old?! You're cruising around in a lil Fiesta ST? That's pretty cool lol. I get asked often if I'm using my wives car when I drive my ST. So many people don't know what they are (living in Vancouver, BC.) But I'm originally from Scotland and let me tell, you, they are EVERYWHERE in the UK. Fiesta ST's in the UK are like mustangs over here in N.America. Anytime you drive somewhere you see like 10 of them per mile.

I personally love its design, more than the Focus ST at least. I find it unique and I think different colors seem to give different perspectives on it, mine is pearl white. I've also noticed that many negative comments about the car come from insecure people who can't stand small cars (sub-compacts) due to their low self-esteem. And so they try to make you believe that the car is weird or ugly looking to make themselves feel better and confuse you and eventually make you have second thoughts. Never fall for that, beauty is subjective and you have a great looking car. - Cheers from TEXAS.

But there is actually 3 modes: Normal, no press Sport, single press Full traction control off, press and hold for 5 seconds.

Done all the main suspension bushings and now waiting for a set of coilovers and adjustable sway bar links to ship.. Got the Cobb lower engine mount and an oil catch can.. Done 110,000km now. I do engine oil and filter change every 5,000km. Hopefully some power mods soon. Can't get the accessport for this euro version I heard which really shit. Engine is really good still and have ran it on 98 octane from the day I bought It brand new. These cars are insane fun for what they are! Been my daily driver that whole time too.

I’ve had zero issues aside from spinning off an exit on a patch of sand put down in anticipation of snow which by the way never came. Basically destroyed ever panel including the hood but was able to drive it home. All in all it was 8k in damage but the only “engine” parts replaced were the intercooler and throttle body. Car is running like new though which is surprising for a Ford Fiesta.

Just a heads up. Not ALL Fiesta ST's are built equally. My slave cylinder in my clutch blew out dude to mechanical failure and had to get that replaced. Replaced the clutch and flywheel as well since brake fluid leaked onto it and I didn't want to risk slippage. Fuse to my radiator fan blew out and had to replace the electrical harness to fix the actual fuse and module for that rad ran. Luckily this was all covered under my extended warranty (except for the flywheel and clutch disc). This was on an all stock '16 FiST with only 54k miles. There are other people on the forums with similar stories as well. That being said, this is still my favorite car to drive and I wouldn't trade it for anything at the moment. It's too much fun and does great gas mileage. So far so good with the fixes as well. Here's hoping another thing won't break. lol

@@RANDY_MAR5H My thoughts exactly. If I were collecting cars, I'd keep it forever. As a daily driver or something to enjoy once a week, it's not something I wanted to have long. Like most of the other cars on my channel, I wanted to own it for a short time and enjoy it and then pass it on to the next person who was looking for one. It's a fine car, but aside from the engine there's nothing remarkable about it and too many compromises in other areas. That said, it was awesome to own and wayyyyyyy better than any VTEC Honda I've tried to like.

The American version of the fiesta st don’t look as gd as the UK version I think it’s the front bumper, it’s different n not as aggressive looking, plus the 5 door version is weird as can’t get that in the uk I’m pretty sure or at least it’s very rare but still it’s a great car mate looks good n like what you’ve done with it

Why do I only see vids with 4 door fiesta ST's in the US? Most UK St's are 2 door, a 4 door is quite rare here.

Tbh (From the US) its probably because we Americans are bigger. Think about it, we lead the SuperSize Era and are #1 in largest person count. Not that anyone is getting in the back seat anyway lmao
I actually know a guy that had the stock turbo world record for a fiesta st in a quarter mile and the only thing he’s had to replace in 125k miles is a turbo💀💀💀understandably. Can’t even fault it

All the great things about this car still leave it sucking when there’s no LSD equipped. Ford ruined it by skipping over the single most important piece of equipment on front Drive car.

I just bought 2011 fiesta 1.4 TDCI absolute awful car dont like it. Engine very weak. 2018 shape is better looking. I bought my suzuki liana/aerio estate 2004 1.6 petrol from a salvage yard with 118k miles on it for only £230. Spent £120 on it for a few parts it needed including anual inspection and had it 4 years now it only ever asked me for a clutch and thermostat and now 179k miles still runs great. This fiesta i bought it because it was a cheaper run around but i dont like it, its got 66k miles and rusting already. I dont know what other car to get now or am i better off keeping the suzuki.

In the same 5 years I've bought, built and sold a Civic, a Prelude, a Cooper S, and two Honda Insights. I drive the other cars much of the time which is clearly why the Fiesta has low miles.
